Hi, I read this a couple times but it's not really clear to me what it means.

I interpret this as SSSD would try to talk to a DNS server for 1 second before trying a next DNS server, but why would SSSD only communicate with a DNS server for 1 second? Does it mean SSSD connects to a DNS server but only waits for a response for 1 second?

I think that the timer is only used to resolve the DNS server, once it's resolved the timer no longer applies.

I have rephrased the complete sentence. Can you pls check the latest changes.

Also I have split the dns_resolver_* parameters from “failover.xml” and created a new file “dns_options.xml” to sync the parameter definition since currently the definition for the parameter “dns_resolver_timeout” is different in files “failover.xml” and “sssd.conf.5.xml”.

It will help maintaining the dns_resolver_* parameters definition from a single file.
